Media Day

As we get set for Super Bowl XXXIX, media day proved to be full of action, at least from the Eagles side. Never have we seen such contrasting styles as the Eagles and Patriots before that the media is sure having a field day making the players aware of it. The funny thing is that the Patriots know they are a boring team to cover and the media keeps shunning that in their face. Hearing remarks made to Bruschi, Johnson, McGinest and Vrabel that you guys are so boring from the media was quite lame considering the media is the one who should spice things up and ask the Patriots players controversial questions. If they are boring, the media is not doing their job, right? Well, at least Freddie Mitchell has been running his mouth and making things a bit more interesting. The return of Terrell Owens has also been a spark on media day. He is a charismatic individual and brings his best at all times and his presence alone seems to have rubbed off on his Eagles teammates because their confidence has been growing, just ask Freddie. The real guy who I want to hear from on media day is the master himself, Bill Belichick. The unfortunate part of the whole media day thing is that the media chooses to show us the clowning around and outspoken few, whereas the game planning and strategy is left out. Come on media, we do not want you asking Givens about a prediction, rather, what he will do with the newly assembled secondary of the Eagles. Well, for what its worth, enjoy another week of nonsense as the NFL builds more hype before the biggest game day in any sporting event, Super Bowl Sunday.
